The Fortress Vertical Lift Gate has been manufactured by TYMETAL for over 25 years and is widely used across North America. This innovative gate system is especially beneficial in areas where there's limited space outside the gate opening for a traditional swing or slide gate to retract without hitting obstacles. Designed as a complete system, the Vertical Lift ensures smooth and precise operation with its heavy W12x53 superstructure, a solid #60 chain drive mechanism, and counterweights. Engineered footings, including rebar cages and anchor bolts, provide stability. Steel counterweights inside vertical columns help balance the gate's weight, reducing motor strain. The gate panel moves on four truck assemblies with sealed, permanently lubricated roller bearings, traveling along a smooth aluminum track. A continuous loop drive system connected to the counterweight in each column guarantees accurate movement.
Available in various sizes, the Vertical Lift Gate is ideal for spaces with constraints and is commonly used in high-security environments such as detention facilities, military bases, and in high-traffic areas like airports, ports, and delivery docks. If you're facing space limitations, the Fortress Vertical Lift Gate is the perfect solution.
